1. Agricultural machinery

Agricultural machinery refers to the tools, machines, and vehicles used in farming and agriculture to make work faster, easier, and more efficient. These machines help with planting, growing, harvesting, and processing crops — and even caring for animals. When agricultural machinery (like tractors, harvesters, or sprayers) is used on public roads, it must follow specific traffic rules to keep everyone safe — including farmers, drivers, and pedestrians.

• Agricultural vehicles must follow speed limits, traffic signals, and signs like any other vehicle.
• Attachments (like plows or sprayers) must be folded or secured when on public roads.
• The driver must be of legal driving age and competent to operate the machinery safely on roads.
• Most agricultural machines are not allowed on expressways or motorways unless permitted by law.
